Barnes' Notes
It is argued by some that the entire catalogue which follows Neh. 7:7-73 is not the register of them "which came up ' at the first' ," but of the Jewish people in Nehemiah' s time. Nehemiah 7:7 and Ezra 2:2 are, however, very positive in their support of the usual view; and some of the arguments against it are thought to be met by considering the Nehemiah of Nehemiah 7:7 and Ezra 2:2 a person different from Nehemiah the governor; and "Tirshatha" an official title likely to have belonged to others besides Nehemiah (see the Ezra 2:63 note.)
